This Signed Van Cleef & Arpels Estate Ring of French provenance, is an authentic piece of fine estate jewelry designed and crafted by the renowned Paris-based French designer and jewelry manufacturer Van Cleef & Arpels crafted in solid 18K yellow gold, weighing 5.9g and measuring 7mm wide and 5mm deep. The long-standing French Jewelery House of Van Cleef & Arpels pioneered the 'invisible setting' colored gemstones in addition to pave-setting of diamonds in yellow gold, prior to which, diamonds were invariably set in white metal. With the return of 'Naturalism' in the mid-1940's, VCA excelled in the production of flower-head brooches, invisibly set with calibre-cut rubies and sapphires. This classically distinct yellow gold Diamond Ring exposes a temptingly delicate, relief-style flower with four petals on stem, positioned on a diamond-swathed surface, composed of 0.65cts of full-cut diamonds graded G color and VS1 clarity. The four petals of the enchanting flower are represented by 0.24cts of full-cut sapphires graded 'lively royal-blue' color and 'very good' clarity, while a 0.05ct marquise emerald graded 'lively grass-green' color and 'very good' clarity simulates the solitaire leaf on the yellow gold stem. This naturalistic inspired signed designer ring of unmatched feminine grace and refined aesthetic beauty features svelte tapering shoulders and a spherical yellow gold band, stamped on the inner surface with the designer's initials 'VCA' and the reference number '515K901-1'. The shank features the French hallmark (eagle's head) and the designer's trademark on the outer surface.
